How Will the Left Attack FDT?

Here is the first view at how the left (read Mainstream Media) will try to attack FDT. This is a Newsweek article by Holly Bailey that attempts to disparage FDT's conservative credentials.

The allegations are:

1. FDT did not go after Bill Clinton as if he was the anti-Christ.
   
2. FDT really supports abortion rights because he opposed criminalizing abortion and because he did not favor an amendment protecting life.
   
3. FDT's support for Campaign Finance Reform
   
4. FDT's including Republicans in his campaign finance investigations in the Senate
   

Now this is being treated as new information by Newsweek. I think most of us have known about these issues already and understand that, in several ways, his positions on these items are MORE conservative rather than less. But the point that I find interesting is that the attack will be that FDT is not a true conservative.

I think this will be a failed approach by the MSM. First, it is not correct, so true conservatives will not be detered. Second, it will make him very palatable by the "moderates" or conservative Democrats. So, it will not hurt him in the primary season and it will help him in the general election.

Works for me.
